[Req]Improving eyesight naturally

i read and heard of news that it's possible to improve our eyesight naturally by doing some exercises with the eyes but whenever i search it on google, alot of them seem like scams and stuff..

i was wondering if anyone knew if this stuff is real or not.. and if it is, any links to this stuff?

thanks;
poo

You can help stretch your eyes to 20/20. Not saying that youll gain 20/20, but its supposed to strengthen your eye muscles. Forgot how its supposed to go, but youre supposed to tense up your body, which tricks your eyes into doing the same. Then you just release and whatnot. I think.

Exercising your eyes to see far ahead by going outside instead of playing computer 8 hours a day helps too. Somebody should've told me.

bench press using your eyes
A Scandinavian economist once stated to Milton Friedman: "In Scandinavia we have no poverty." Milton Friedman replied, "That's interesting, because in America among Scandinavians, we have no poverty either."

How would strengthening his eye muscles help? The muscles on your lens are relaxed when you are focusing far away and tense when you're focusing close-up.

Near-sightedness is caused by your eyeball being too long: it causes the focus to fall in front of your retina even when your lens is fully relaxed.

MAYBE focusing on far-away objects frequently can reverse some of the damage. Maybe it can prevent or slow down further deformation. Personally I try to do it more often as an effort to keep my eyes from getting even worse. If you want to actually improve your eyesight, the only solution that will reliably work is to use laser surgery to shave off part of your Cornea, moving the focus back onto your retina again.

Wikipedia has more info on near-sightedness:

I heard carrots do not improve your eye-sights at all but just night vision. Is this true?

Heh, i do that for fun just to zone out. Its fun to look through people or stare past things.
how reasonable is it to eat off wood instead of your tummy?

I remember my Biology teacher saying that carrots don't improve anything, but rather they just make your eyes not get any worse than they already are.

toughen up your eye by constantly poking at the pupil, then later when you're confident move onto sharp objects. GL

best I could do, but I'm 90% sure they're scams

and something called the Bate's Method, a controversial but exercise-related way of improving one's vision.

Make note the Central fixation, is only a "theory"

hahaha, good advice! im surprised it was not on Wikipedia

also, i have heard things on the radio etc about improving your eyesight "naturally" a.k.a w/out glasses, the comercial talks about how wearing glasses etc is just causing your eyes to become "lazy" and rely on glasses to focus them...im not sure what the product was or how it worked though.

- yeah it was something like this: http://www.holistichealthtools.com/improve-your-vision.html

-further scrolling revealed this site also:

http://web.singnet.com.sg/~hanwen/nvifaq.htm

(this last one has the steps and tells you what to do w/out asking for cash)


Does vision therapy take up much time?

No. Primarily it is a matter of developing good visual habits and
intergrating them throughout your normal day to replace bad
visual habits.



Can vision be improved?

Yes. The US Air Force and many commercial airlines have a
programs of training pilots with normal vision to super normal
sight. Olympic athletes including the US volleyball and field
hockey teams frequently work to improve their sight to beyond
normal. Other athletes that do so include tennis champion
Virginia Wade, the Dallas Cowboys, New York Yeankees, Val
Skinner profesional golfer. Connecticut state police have regular
vision improvement training. The list is endless.
